When Canada’s tallest building celebrates a giant milestone, it’s only fitting to have a giant birthday card to mark to occasion.  Courtesy of the upcoming release of Disney’s The BFG, which opens on Canada Day, the giant birthday card will be located at the base of the CN Tower June 21 through July 1st for Torontonians and visitors alike to come add their birthday wishes.  Brand ambassadors will be located at the giant birthday card daily to help well-wishers write their personalized greetings on a tablet, which will then be displayed on the large electronic screens inside the card.  #BFGxCNTower40
